Hexa Consulting: “Boond contributed to our strong growth”

Can you introduce Hexa Consulting?

Hexa Consulting is a 100% Portuguese IT consulting firm, born from the synergy of multiple profiles, all coming from the consulting industry.
The shared and complementary vision of our partners — from consultants to clients and business leaders — has enabled us to build a true 360° approach to consulting.

We are experiencing very strong growth. Founded in October 2021, Hexa Consulting already counts 104 employees.

Our ambition from day one was to bring a new value proposition to the Portuguese market, particularly for our consultants. We provide our teams with a rich ecosystem of tools and services, including:

• A structured and solid career development plan
• Extensive training programs
• Professional certifications
• Relevant and efficient digital tools

This type of HR-driven approach is still quite differentiating in the Portuguese market. It is precisely this personalized career support that makes Hexa Consulting attractive to IT professionals and enables us to engage and retain our consultants over the long term.

Today, 80% of our activity is based in Portugal, with a strong ambition to expand internationally in 2023. Building trust and encouraging international players to invest in Portugal is a key part of our strategy.

Why did you choose BoondManager?

All partners had previously used BoondManager in past experiences within different consulting firms. We knew the solution very well and were already convinced of its value.

Choosing BoondManager was therefore an obvious decision. We contacted Sabrina — and, for formality, a few other software vendors — but Boond quickly stood out as simpler, more relevant, and better aligned with our needs.

We deliberately chose to equip ourselves from day one, in order to start with the right processes from the very beginning. From previous experiences in other consulting firms, I had seen the downsides of using in-house tools and later migrating to Boond: it led to significant losses of time and energy. Starting with the right tool from the outset truly makes all the difference.

What are your favorite features?

With more than 100 employees in less than one year, we have far exceeded our initial objectives. It is therefore fair to say that BoondManager has strongly contributed to our rapid growth.

What we value most is that BoondManager is perfectly tailored to our business model. It is immediately clear that all features have been designed to support our day-to-day operations and serve the specific needs of consulting firms.

From recruitment and CRM, through project management, all the way to invoicing, BoondManager is a true 360° tool that supports us every single day.

What are your relationships like with the Boond teams?

Excellent!
Estelle and Sabrina are extremely available, professional, and friendly.
Nothing but positive feedback — flawless collaboration.

How was your onboarding experience?

All of us were already familiar with the tool, and since we chose to equip ourselves from the very beginning, the conditions were ideal for a successful onboarding.

Everything went smoothly and effortlessly. The platform is highly intuitive, making adoption fast and straightforward for all teams.
